It's quite simple - if it wasn't for the ZX80/81 I wouldn't be here now
doing this, nor would I have learned how to program, or have my museum. I
don't care that it's not a good hardware design or that it uses 'funny
BASIC' or that its maths might not be perfect.....it was only ukp70 and it
changed my life.
